Visit Us at Christmas Time

Come and visit the Village of Ashley's Country Christmas celebration. Starting the weekend before Thanksgiving the village will be transformed into an old fashioned Country Christmas. Stroll the streets and enjoy the beautiful 1940's inspired decorations. See the big Christmas tree, take a horse drawn wagon ride, watch a juggler or visit the hobo camp. To make a wonderful Christmas memory bring your own bell to add to our Believe tree. When you're hungry stop into the North Pole Express Cafe for a light meal. Gus' Eatery and Saloon will have a food court and the Burger Barn has burgers, hotdogs, pretzels and icecream. For a sweet treat try the Czech Bakery or our new Sweet Shop. For just plain fun try the Hobo Kitchen for soup and bread and meet all the hobo characters.In our shops you'll find handmade gifts, home decor, presents to stuff stockings, children's gifts, souvenirs, train memorabilia and vintage ornaments.You can see a chain saw carver and go for a horse and wagon ride. Children can see Santa's reindeer, make a wooden toy at Santa's Workshop and decorate a cookie to take home. They can visit the carnival and the Christmas Candy Land. If your in town at the right time you'll get to greet the North Pole express as it comes into town. And the highlight of your visit will be seeing Santa and maybe winning the First Gift of Christmas.
